Hi! I’m an experienced tax associate with a ton of experience in automation (specifically Python) through work. I really think a career change would be great for me so I could focus more on tech. Has anyone made this switch, specifically to MBB, and have any tips regarding the recruitment process from a big 4?

Does anyone have experience interviewing with Deloitte Internal Services? I had my final interview a week and a half ago, and received positive feedback throughout. The hiring manager had positive things to say and mentioned they hoped to make a decision by the end of last week. It’s now Friday the week after. The role still shows as “Interviews in Process.” We did discuss potential start dates, but no salary. Any experience with receiving offers for an internal services role? Is this common?
